The Legend Of the Dream Catcher
The Ojibwa (Chippewa) believe that night is full of both good and bad dreams. When a dream catcher is hung above the place where you sleep it moves freely in the night air and catches the dreams as they drift by. The good dreams, knowing their way, pass through the opening in the center of the webbing while the bad dreams, not knowing the way, are caught in the webbing and destroyed at the first light of the morning sun.
There are many variants to the dream catcher legend, some which say both the good and bad dreams are captured and some which say the good dreams slide down the feather to those sleeping below. Although the Ojibwa are credited as the first people to use Dream Catchers many other Tribes and Native peoples have adopted Dream Catchers into their culture. Even though the designs and legends of Dream Catchers differ slightly, the underlying meaning and symbolism is universal and is carried across cultures and language barriers.

Dream Catchers Patterns And Instructions
- Sometimes referred to as 'Sacred Hoops,' Ojibwe dreamcatchers were traditionally used as talismans to protect sleeping people, usually children, from bad dreams and nightmares. Native Americans believe that the night air is filled with dreams, both good and bad.
- While people may differ in their conceptual on what a dream is, they can all agree on one thing: a dream is magical. This is perhaps why our ancestors felt the need to create 'dream catchers'. Here we compiled 20 d ream catcher quotes, which grant insight into the enchanting nature of dreams.
- Feb 5, 2017 - Dreamcatchers were originally developed by the Ojibwe Tribe to filter out all bad dreams and only allow good thoughts to enter our mind. All bad dreams disappear with the rising sun and only good dreams are then passed through and slide down the feathers to the sleeper. Deviating from traditional webbing, this Dreamcatcher is made with recycled Bangle, wrapped with Metallic Peach.
- Essentially, the dream catcher is to manipulate the spirit world. Some people have faith in the efficacy of dream catchers. Others are unsure but are superstitious enough to keep one in the bedroom anyway. Still, others see dream catchers as a mere piece of art that looks good dangling from a rear-view mirror.

My wife got a dream catcher a few years ago and although I said they are nonsense (because I didn't know about them),I just thought they were a harmless old Native american thing and it's just an ornament sort of thing.I have since found out that they don't filter out bad dreams at all they are part of the occult and do the opposite to what they claim.My wife also had a thing called a 'circle.
